Yeseuma
The flat, long-stretched wheat dough has a pleasant, chewy elasticity. When generously coated with kinako and sugar, a fragrant aroma and gentle sweetness fill your mouth. This local snack was born from the flour-based food culture passed down since ancient times in Oita Prefecture, with its origins said to be in Kono, Yufu City. The basic method involves stretching kneaded wheat flour thin like udon noodles, boiling it, and coating it with kinako; it is said that the more skilled a person is, the thinner and longer they can stretch it. It is also known as a famous confection that was once presented to Meiji Jingu. The smooth texture, chewy dough, and fragrance of the kinako create a simple yet addictive, nostalgic taste. It is a dish that makes you want to take a relaxing break with a cup of warm tea.
